Oh No!!

With two very difficult days of work behind me, I came home last night to hear a hissing sound coming from my basement. Upon investigating I discovered my water heater was spewing water on to the basement floor. It looked as though it hadn't been doing it for long, even so there was a mess. And because I was so physically and emotionally tired I began to panic and cry and I called my sister and yelled, "what do I do, what do I do?" She made a couple of phone calls and my brother came over to do what needed to be done. So now I have no hot water. As I said before, I do not handle these types of crisis very well. But when this one was over, for the most part. I loaded up and left the house! I went to the Laundromat, and then went and had myself one of my favorite 'comfort food' sandwiches.....Arby's. Then I went to the grocery store and bought myself a much deserved donut. I had been so excited, I got off work early and was home sooner than normal. But when all was said and done, I didn't get settled in my chair until after seven p.m.

Today is Saturday, I have no hot water at home. But I'm not going to let it concern me. I have water. Lots of people don't. And I have friends who will let me borrow their shower! Hope they don't want me to return it. :-)

Anyone want a kitten? I have three that need a home!

One Thing.....

One thing I miss now that I'm back to working full time......time to myself during the day! I miss my afternoon naps, my errand running, checking Facebook and e-mail and WRITING!!!

Day One

My first day as a full time Nanny. I'm exhausted yet invigorated. The drive home was long and tense as I am coming home in after work traffic. Not used to that. People are maniacs out there. In a hurry to get home. I do the speed limit, they pass me like bats out of heck and still end up setting at the stop light next to me. I will be going to bed before it is dark! :-)
